Red Sox "In" On Gio Gonzalez; Why This Might Not Be Great - Marc Normandin

Pitcher                           K/9 BB/9 K/BB HR/9 ERA GB% FIP


Gio Gonzalez                 8.6   4.4    1.94   0.9     3.93 48%  4.06
Daisuke Matsuzaka        8.2   4.4    1.89   0.9    4.25 36%  4.26

This is to say that he's not that much different than Dice-K, a middling and frustrating pitcher at best, and that Gonzalez garnered these statistics in the mediocre ALWest.

As long as the price is not to high I would take it, but the A's are looking to rip someone off apparently. Move on.
